NEW ON DVD THIS WEEK “BIG BANG THEORY: THE FINAL SEASON”: The CBS comedy ended the way it started — a show that took intelligent humor, mixed in some saucy moments and presented it through a firstrate cast. It is obvious looking at the slate of comedies on the networks this fall that the end of the series has created a comedy black hole. ■■Jim Parsons got the lion’s share of praise for his performance as the odd Dr. Sheldon Cooper, but as with all great situation comedies — “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” “MASH,” “Seinfeld” — the reason the program worked was the solid ensemble cast throughout the 12 seasons. Particular praise should be given Mayim Bialik, who gave the series a huge comedy boost with her work as the quirky Amy Farrah Fowler. The mix of pop culture references with real science showed that humor doesn’t have to live in the gutter as long as it is written with care and a commitment to being as smart as possible. It’s great the show can be owned on DVD because that kind of approach is difficult to find on the network lineups. “HEATHERS 30TH ANNIVERSARY STEEL BOOK”: The 1988 feature film was not completely loved until it was made available to watch at home. That’s when the beauty of the dark comedy found in the script by Daniel Waters could fully be appreciated. An all-star cast that includes Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, Shannen Dougherty and Lisanne Falk takes on the story of the picture-perfect queens of the social scene at Westerburg High that everyone wants to be and are afraid to cross. Veronica (Ryder) is convinced she wants to be a Heather until she meets J.D. (Slater), who has some wild ideas about dealing with bullies. Be sure to watch the production while keeping in mind it was made 30 years ago.

Pacific Northwest Opera stages ‘Mefistofele’ at McIntyre Hall By KIMBERLY CAUVEL @Kimberly_SVH
MOUNT VERNON — Although Halloween has passed, Pacific Northwest Opera is keeping the ghoulish spirit of fall alive with its second weekend of “Mefistofele,” an Italian opera about a deal with the devil. The show’s final performances at McIntyre Hall in Mount Vernon are
set for Friday night and Sunday afternoon. The story is from famed German author and playwright Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, set to music by Italian composer Arrigo Boito. This is Boito’s only opera. The show tells the tale of an aging scholar, Faust, who bargains his soul with the Devil to regain youth and passion. Evan Boyer is making his debut with Pacific
Northwest Opera as Mefistofele, the devil himself. James Brown is conducting, making Mefistofele his fourth show with Pacific Northwest Opera. The cast also includes Pacific Northwest Opera stars Stephen Rumph as Faust and Corinna Quilliam as Margherita. The show is performed in Italian with English supertitles. The performances are scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
Friday and 3 p.m. Sunday, with a free lecture beginning 45 minutes before the show to discuss the history of the story, the costumes and more. Tickets range from $2575 and can be purchased at mcintyrehall.org or by calling 360-416-7727. — Reporter Kimberly Cauvel: 360-416-2199, kcauvel@skagitpublishing. com, Twitter: @Kimberly_SVH, Facebook.com/ bykimberlycauvel

Insider tips to make the most of a Disney World vacation By LYNN O’ROURKE HAYES FamilyTravel.com
If your family travel plans include a vacation to “the most magical place on earth” you’ll want to access the tips and tricks of park veterans to make the most of your trip and to keep stress levels low. Author Susan Veness lives near Mouseland and shares insider tips in her book “Walt Disney World Hacks, 350 + Park Secrets for Making the Most of Your Walt Disney World Vacation” (Simon & Schuster, 2019). Here are five strategies to consider: PLAN AHEAD The earlier you get started the better. You’ll need to sort out a flight or driving plan, a hotel strategy, dining reservations and priorities for which attractions and character meet-and-greets will top your list. In one of her “Newbie Alerts,” tips to assist first-timers, Veness reminds Disney enthusiasts that “Walt Disney World is enormous. You can’t do it all in a week or even two so it’s important to prioritize,” she advises. “As you narrow down your priorities, that overwhelmed, chaotic feeling will turn into a workable daily schedule.” FIND OUT ABOUT THE FAST PASS This important tool will allow you to reserve a return time for three rides, character meet-and-greets or shows in one park per day and avoid waiting in long lines. According to Veness, guests staying at a Disney resort or select resorts within Walt Disney World have the

ability to book their times 60 days in advance of their vacation. There are many ways to tour the parks, and plenty of hacks to consider, so you’ll want to consult with fellow travelers to create the best strategy for using your Fast Pass. WHERE TO STAY There are many factors to consider when determining where to rest your heads during your Disney vacation. Budget, convenience, special benefits and access all come into play. Review your credit card points or hotel loyalty programs to see if options might apply. If you are a Costco member, look into their discounts on resort rooms. Using a travel agent who specializes in Disney vacations is also a good strategy. Their knowledge of each option and your specific needs will pay dividends.
YOUR CELLPHONE You’ll be accessing apps, taking photos and connecting with other park goers during your stay so consider bringing along extra chargers. Advises Veness, “If your family has more than one phone, use one at a time until the battery runs out.” She also advises practicing with the My Disney Experience app before leaving home to avoid frustration and unnecessary use of the phone battery. Another pro tip: Veness recommends taking a photo of your contact information and using it as your locked screen image. Should you leave your phone (and the valuable photos within) behind during your adventure, the finder will know how to track you down. THE FAMED “DISNEY WALLS”
There is so much to see and do so it’s best to sort out the secret spots in advance. According to Veness, “Disney fans have made certain food, drinks and attractions into cult classics and they’ve done the same with specific walls within the theme parks.” Certain locations offer bold colors and geometric shapes as backgrounds and are popular with social media users and for memory making, she advises. Among the popular spots are Magic Kingdom’s Purple Wall, Epcot’s Toothpaste Wall, the Popsicle Stick Wall at Hollywood Studios and the Moss Wall at Animal Kingdom. All have their own hashtag so you can scope them out in advance. – Lynn O’Rourke Hayes (www.LOHayes.com) is an author, family travel expert and enthusiastic explorer.

THURSDAY, NOV. 14 “Pray the Gay Away, presented by Theater Arts Guild,” takes place in 1980 Minnetonka, Minnesota, and shows the collision course of two boys being subjected to the controversial practice of gay conversion therapy, the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod statement that “homosexual behavior is intrinsically sinful,” a Youth Pride LGBTQ support group fighting for human rights, and the local community caught in the middle. For his fourth full-length musical, Conrad Askland, former music director of Cirque du Soleil and “Rock of Ages,” has trained his satirical missile system on the cultural, political and theological forces that surround the world of gay conversion therapy and the “pray away the gay” movement.

‘Doctor Sleep’ can’t escape ‘The Shining’ By KATIE WALSH Tribune News Service
What is the hold that “The Shining” has over us, culturally? It’s the popularity of Stephen King, indeed, but it’s also, specifically, Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 film. The surreal and disturbing imagery, the unforgettable performances, and the film’s hypnotic rhythms have woven their way into our collective unconscious and have gotten profoundly stuck there. The cultural grip of “The Shining” is such that it has a stranglehold on Mike Flanagan’s adaptation of “Doctor Sleep,” a sequel of sorts, that it nearly chokes the life out of it. King’s take on what happened after “here’s Johnny” on that snowy mountain is a fascinating follow-up involving an alcoholic Danny Torrance learning to harness his “shine” for good, helping a young girl fight a terrifying death cult, the True Knot. That’s all present in Flanagan’s film, and it’s the most engrossing aspect, comprising the first twothirds of this two-and-ahalf-hour film. It’s when Flanagan’s “Doctor Sleep” is dragged back to the Overlook Hotel that this adaptation loses consciousness. Ewan MacGregor stars as the grown-up Danny Torrance (Alex Essoe and Henry Thomas briefly

play his parents, Wendy and Jack, or versions of them, and bear incredible resemblance to both Shelly Duvall and Jack Nicholson). Dan’s placed his demons in their mental lockboxes and hit the bottle hard, like dad. Disturbing psychic visions drive him to a small town in New Hampshire, where he seeks solace in Alcoholics Anonymous, and a new friend, Billy (Cliff Curtis). Though his darker thoughts are quelled in sobriety, he can’t fully hide his “shine,” and working in hospice care, he and a psychic cat bring solace to patients at the end of their lives. But it’s when a young girl, Abra (Kyliegh Curran), with a powerful shine, reaches out to him that Dan is put to the test. She’s witnessed the True Knot abduct and torture a young boy (Jacob Tremblay), feeding off his “steam,” his psychic soul of sorts.
There’s such a rich vein of original mythology to be tapped with the True Knot, and Flanagan does flesh out their world with intriguing detail. Rebecca Ferguson is entrancing as cult leader Rose the Hat, drawing the most vulnerable, shiny, steamy prey into her trap. Their abduction and feeding rituals are disturbingly horrific and terrifying, especially considering the young victims. But Flanagan manages to build motivation and understanding (not empathy) for the True Knot, which makes the stakes that much more interesting and complex. Ferguson and Flanagan make Rose the Hat one of the best horror villains of recent years. What makes “Doctor Sleep” so delightfully chewy are its many complex women, from Rose and her terrifying accomplice Snakebite (Emily Alyn Lind), to the
powerful Abra, a girl with a shine so bright, she can astral project. Though “Doctor Sleep” takes its time ramping up and winding down, a climatic sequence with Abra and Rose facing off, climbing into each other’s minds, is fascinating, and Flanagan visually executes with creativity and clarity. It’s just that when “Doctor Sleep” ends up back at the Overlook for another “Greatest Hits of The Shining” that the Ambien hits. For all the fresh originality of the first half, why do we have to retread Kubrick’s film again? Leashing the film adaptation so closely to Kubrick’s film is a missed opportunity for this story to realize the full mystical potential promised. – 2:31. Rated R for disturbing and violent content, some bloody images, language, nudity and drug use. HH½ (out of four stars)
Compiled from news services. Ratings are 1 to 4 stars.
“The Irishman” — My only complaint about Martin Scorsese’s epic and masterful American crime saga about a hitman who claims he killed Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa is that the 209-minute running time is too short. This is one of the best films of the decade. Drama, R, 209 minutes. HHHH “Frankie” — While Isabelle Huppert is magnificent as a dying actress who reunites with her family in picturesque Sintra, Portugal, the sophisticated dialogue often comes across as so “written,” so staged, we can practically see the words on the page as the actors deliver their lines. Drama, PG-13, 100 minutes. HH “Terminator: Dark Fate” — The sixth film in the 35-yearold franchise tosses aside the third, fourth and fifth entries in the series like a Terminator disposing of a hapless cop, and is so derivative of the second entry, it’s just serving up overcooked leftovers. Linda Hamilton is terrific as the world-weary but still bad Sarah Conner, but she’s saddled with corny dialogue in a storyline that’s like “Judgment Day” meets “Groundhog Day.” Sci-fi action, R, 128 minutes. HH “Paradise Hills” — In this futuristic psychological thriller, young women (Emma Roberts, Danielle Macdonald, Awkwafina) are sent to a bizarre island to learn how to embrace subservience. While the fractured fairy tale doesn’t fully jell to become something special, there’s never a dull moment. Fantasy thriller, not rated, 94 minutes. HHH “Motherless Brooklyn” — With this 1950s period piece, writer-director Edward Norton delivers a richly layered, well-photographed film-noir mystery about a lonely private detective with Tourette’s syndrome. As the star, he proves a great actor can make unfortunate choices and deliver an uneven performance. Drama, R, 144 minutes. HHH “Harriet” — On balance, this is a formulaic biopic of the great American abolitionist and Civil War hero Harriet Tubman. But thanks to director Kasi Lemmons and a powerful lead performance from Cynthia Erivo, the story comes to life in a crackling slice of historical fiction about a real-life historical action hero. Historical drama, PG-13, 125 minutes. HHH “Black and Blue” — A rookie cop (Naomie Harris) becomes a target after her bodycam records a corrupt officer executing a teenage drug dealer. When the social commentary comes, it’s far too late in the game to pretend this stereotype-riddled and gratuitously violent nonsense suddenly has a real political conscience. Crime thriller, R, 108 minutes. HH “The Lighthouse” — A drifter (Robert Pattinson) contracts for a monthlong gig on an isolated, storm-swept island as an apprentice for a crabby old lighthouse keeper (Willem Dafoe). The actors are equally brilliant in this visually striking, claustrophobic, black-and-white horror show. Drama horror, R, 108 minutes. HHH½ “Zombieland: Double Tap” — Yes, we’ve been inundated with the undead since the original “Zombieland” came out in 2009, but in the sequel, it’s so much fun to see Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin reunited as a dysfunctional family of sorts that the zombies are often nothing more than annoying distractions. Rating: Comedy horror, R, 93 minutes. HHH

REVIEW
A convincing portrayal of freedom fighter Harriet Tubman By RICHARD ROEPER Chicago Sun-Times
It might come as a shock to learn we’ve never had a major feature film about the great American abolitionist and Civil War hero Harriet Tubman, who has become such a legend that a recent New York Times article quoted a Tubman biographer saying she encountered people “who were not sure if she was even a real person, or if she was a figure from folklore, like Johnny Appleseed.” Of course, and thank the Lord, the woman who was born a slave and changed her name to Harriet Tubman after gaining her freedom was a very real person who lived a surreal, amazing, inspirational life. Now, thanks to director and co-writer Kasi Lemmons, and a powerful lead performance from the brilliant Cynthia Erivo, 21st century moviegoers have the opportunity to see this story come to life in a crackling slice of historical fiction concentrating primarily on Tubman’s stunning
and awe-inspiring emergence from abused slave girl to brave, risk-taking, gun-toting, relentlessly determined conductor on the Underground Railroad. When Erivo’s Tubman breaks into song or lashes out at anyone telling her what she can’t do or races through the unforgiving woods, gun in hand, she’s a real-life historical action hero, one who persevered against all odds and in the face of white-hot bigotry and hatred. Save for some visually jazzy flashback/fever-dream sequences (Harriet has fainting spells and hallucinations, caused when her skull was cracked open by a monstrous slave owner when she was a girl), “Harriet” is on balance a formulaic biopic — one of those films focusing on a pivotal period in a historical figure’s life and sure to include an epilogue with written explainers detailing the rest of the person’s life, complete with old photographs. When we meet Harriet, it’s 1848, and she is a slave called “Minty” in Bucktown, Maryland. Minty’s husband Junyah (CJ McBath) is a free man living down
the road, but when Minty’s owners sell her to a plantation owner in the Deep South, it appears Minty will be separated from not only her husband, but also her parents and siblings, forever. She runs off, in the middle of the night, with the snarling, hateful, sadistic slave owner Gideon (Joe Alwyn, doing fine work in a difficult role) and his men doggedly pursuing her. (Gideon’s father owned the plantation where Minty was enslaved, and he and Minty are about the same age. He thinks they have some sort of bond because they “grew up together.” He’s an idiot. A ragefilled idiot.) Miraculously, Minty avoids capture — at one point taking a deep dive into raging waters in a scene straight out of “The Fugitive” — and makes the hundred-mile journey on foot to Philadelphia, where she finds the abolitionists William Still (Leslie Odom Jr.) and Marie Buchanon (Janelle Monae). They take her in, help her establish a new identity as Harriet Tubman, find her a job and facilitate her transformation into a free woman who never has
to look back. But that’s the thing. Harriet can’t help but look back, because her husband and all her kin are still back in Maryland. She’s going back to get as many of them as possible and lead them to Philadelphia. And when she completes that trip, she’s going to do it again. And again. And again. Slave owners and bounty hunters think they’re hunting down a male known as “Moses.” Even some of Harriet’s own family are stunned to learn she’s the one who’s been leading dozens of slaves to freedom while somehow avoiding slave trackers. Director Lemmons frames many of Harriet’s harrowing rescue missions in fast-paced, quick-cut style, as if we’re watching a modern-day action movie, complete with a rousing albeit heavy-handed score from Terence Blanchard. (One narrow escape in particular defies plausibility and relies almost completely on a group of slave trackers being incredibly thick-headed — but it’s still a kick to see the villains outsmarted again and again.)
The multitalented Janelle Monae (“Hidden Figures,” “Moonlight”) continues her string of fine film performances as the refined and wealthy and beautiful Marie Buchanon, who is horrified by the abuse Harriet has suffered and comes from an entirely different world — but is willing to sacrifice her own freedom and safety in the name of helping her sisters and brothers. Leslie Odom Jr. turns in fine work as William Still, a good and great man who at first is almost amused by Harriet’s naivete and blind determination, but becomes her biggest supporter. “Harriet” certainly doesn’t shy away from reminding us of the horrors of slavery, but it’s mostly about the quest for freedom, and a remarkable woman who found her own freedom wasn’t nearly enough. She wouldn’t rest until she had guided dozens of others to the light. And not even then. – 2:05. Rated PG-13 for thematic content throughout, violent material and language including racial epithets. HHH (out of four stars)
At area theaters “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” — Things don’t go well when Princess Aurora (Elle Fanning) brings her sort-of mother, the powerful but misunderstood Maleficent (Angelina Jolie), to a nearby kingdom to meet the queen (Michelle Pfeiffer) whose son she loves. The CGI-laden battle and the magical creatures that emerge feel like something out of a superhero movie. Fantasy adventure, PG, 119 minutes. HHH “The Addams Family” — A computer-animated comedy mires the eccentric kinfolk from Charles Addams’ cartoons in a
breezy and intermittently funny but not particularly original story. The often wince-inducing humor is offset by heavy-handed message-sending about tolerance and acceptance and learning how to live and let live. Animated comedy, PG, 105 minutes. HH “Pain and Glory” — As an ailing filmmaker (Antonio Banderas) hashes out his grievances with his former leading man, flashbacks reveal his childhood with a fierce, protective mother (Penelope Cruz). The small scenes in director Pedro Almodovar’s film add up
to a lovely memory piece with some valuable insights about the big picture. Drama, R, 113 minutes. HHH½ “Gemini Man” — A darkops agent is hunted by his much younger clone in a mind-numbingly unoriginal international spy thriller. Thanks to the wonders of “de-aging” technology, Will Smith gives two of the worst performances of his career in the same film. Progress! Action thriller, R, 113 minutes. H “Lucy in the Sky” — Transformed by a space shuttle mission, an astronaut (Natalie Portman) begins drinking and having an
extramarital affair with a colleague (Jon Hamm). This irritatingly self-conscious, maddeningly rudderless and scatter-brained story bounces all over the place and never finds an identity. Drama, R, 124 minutes. H½ “Joker” — This chilling character study portrays events in Gotham City that resulted in the transformation of the sad loner Arthur Fleck into the classic supervillain. With maniacal Joaquin Phoenix dominating the screen with his memorably creepy turn, “Joker” will cling to you like the aftermath of an unfortunate-
